This private day trip lasts about six hours and begins with hotel pickup in Berlin. The tour starts with a 25-minute walk through Oranienburg, a town closely connected to the Nazi regime and the Sachsenhausen camp. The guide explains how local factories exploited forced labor from the camp and how residents were involved or complicit in these actions. The main part of the tour takes place at the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial and Museum. Visitors spend around three hours exploring the camp grounds, which include original barracks, guard towers, a gas chamber, execution sites, infirmaries, and memorials. The licensed guide trained by the memorial authority provides detailed explanations about the camp’s role in the Third Reich’s system of oppression. The guide also shares accounts of the prisoners’ experiences, covering political detainees and minority groups targeted by the Nazis. The tour is designed to offer a respectful examination of the site’s history and the harsh realities faced by those imprisoned there. Food, drinks, and gratuities are not included in the price.

Oranienburg
The tour includes a 25-minute walk through Oranienburg, a town with strong ties to the Nazi regime. The guide explains how local factories, including those producing war materials, used forced labor from Sachsenhausen prisoners. Residents of Oranienburg were either aware of or involved in these actions, with some directly supporting Nazi operations and others benefiting economically while ignoring the brutality.

Memorial and Museum Sachsenhausen
Visitors spend about three hours at the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial and Museum. The camp was constructed in 1936 using slave labor to imprison political enemies of the Nazi regime. Over the next decade, roughly 200,000 people were held there before the Soviets evacuated it in 1945. Afterwards, the Soviets used the camp for five years to imprison 60,000 war criminals, including Nazis and collaborators. The site includes original structures such as barracks, guard towers, a gas chamber, execution facilities, infirmaries, and memorials.
